I read all the posts about the probably wc and european raised pancakes coming in and am thinking about getting some to try to set up a breeding project. Some of the larger pancakes ive seen for sale are probably gravid and seem to be a good place to start. i have had tortoises before but not bred them, i breed snakes and lizards primarily. if i were to pick up some gravid adults, how should they be set up to lay? what kind of substrate, and should i give them a moist area or box for them? and how moist should the substrate be? also, whats the preferred incubation temperature and are there any special tips for pancake eggs? thanks
